Facundo Cordero

Exeter Chiefs signed Argentine wing Facundo Cordero prior to the restart of the 2019-20 season.

The gifted back joined the Premiership outfit from Los Ceibos in his homeland and follows in the footsteps of his brother Santi, who joined in 2018.

Fleet-footed and with a real turn of speed, Cordero didn't take long to make his mark for the Devonians, scoring a try on his Gallagher Premiership debut away to Saracens at Allianz Park.

The Exeter Chiefs are Cordero’s first foreign club and his second foreign experience. In 2019 he played for the Jaguares XV in South Africa’s Currie Cup First Division. The Argentine side were undefeated for the season and Facundo Cordero was a try scorer in the final against the Griffons.

2019 was also a productive year for Cordero in representative colours. He received regular game time for the Argentina XV in the Americas Rugby Championship.
